[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I am very familiar with all three schools, but I would encourage you to consider charter schools as well. You will need to play the school lottery to get into them, but based on your family's experience and your goals I think you'd be very happy at some of the schools with a diverse, international focus. So, I'd recommend renting for a year and playing the lottery. Then, based on what schools you get into, you can move to that part of the city.[/quote] It think they are excellent elementary schools and charters need not be an option when you have such good choices of public. If I'm not mistaken each school also has a focus. For example LT is an arts integration school. Try to match up the school with your child's interests. [/quote] I'm the poster that recommended that OP consider charters. I have a similar background as OP and attend a charter which has a very diverse group of international families (many languages spoken) and I think OP would love it at our school. I live on the Hill and considered Maury, LT, & JO - which are all great options. However, none of these schools have the international focus (not just parents from other countries, but study of other countries) that I'm speaking of. My child does not go to a DCI feeder BTW.
